CNN Report: E-mail is crushing Facebook, Twitter for selling stuff online

Email is crushing Facebook, Twitter

Email is Crushing Facebook, Twitter for Selling Stuff Online
'The 7 Reasons Why You Must Build Your List', and how email marketing
produced an average ROI of 4,000% in 2012...

According to a new study by market research firm Custora,
in the past four years online retailers have quadrupled their
rate of customers acquired through e-mail.

"Facebook over that same period barely registers as a way to 
make a sale, and the tiny percentage of people who do 
connect and buy over Facebook has stayed flat. Twitter, 
meanwhile, doesn't register at all.

By far the most popular way to get customers was "organic 
search," according to the report, followed by "cost per click" 
ads (in both cases, read: Google).
Custora came up with its figures by analyzing data from 72 
million customers shopping on 86 different retailer sites. 

They tracked where customers were clicking from (e-mail, 
Twitter, Google, etc.) and what and how much they bought, 
not just on that visit but for the next two years."

This is why I have recommending for years using
social media TO BUILD YOUR LIST of subscribers.


"Everything that you do online should be leveraged for 
you to BUILD YOUR LIST" ― Jeff Johnson

Many people all around the world use Twitter and
Facebook very successfully to build their lists (an email list
of 2,000 optin subscribers will bring in $1,000 to $2,000 a 
month, on average, provided you email them relevant 
offers regularly).

Also, according to Internet marketer Ryan Deiss, interacting
with your email subscribers on social media sites increases
your email engagement (how much your subscribers open
your email and click on your links) by as much as 500%.

So, don't jettison your Social Media strategy just yet.
Make sure you leverage social media, though, to build your
list (Give things away for free to your fans! How? by tweeting
and posting Facebook messages with links
 to your optin
pages!)
    ;)
This is how you build 'Your Own Economy'.
Your list of email subscribers, Facebook fans, Twitter
followers, YouTube subscribers, and LinkedIn contacts...
these form your small personal kingdom where you take
care of 'your people'.

Social media and email listbuilding can make you 'recession-
proof, by allowing you to create your very own private economy
outside the vagaries of the economy at large. Op in to our list now at

and educating your subscribers about your offers.
